Zaharee) To: firearms-alert@shell.portal.com Subject: ALERT: Crime Bill X-Listprocessor-Version: 6.0c -- ListProcessor by Anastasios Kotsikonas X-Comment: NRA Alerts list Sender: firearms-alert-owner@shell.portal.com Precedence: bulk Status: R August 8, 1994 Update: The House Rules Committee is very likely to meet tomorrow, August 9th, to agree on the text of the Conference Reported Crime Bill Rule. If this occurs, a vote in the House on the Rule and the Conference Reported Crime Bill will be scheduled for Wednesday, August 10th. It is absolutely imperative that NRA Members and gun owners re-call and/or re-fax their Representatives and urge them to vote against the Rule. A vote on the Rule is a procedural vote. If the rule is NOT adopted the Crime Bill will be sent back to Conference for further negotiations. If the Rule is voted favorably then there will be a vote on the Conference version of the Crime Bill. Therefore also be sure to request that your representative vote against the Crime Bill itself. Also please call your two US Senators and ask that they support a filibuster against the Crime Bill as well as voting against the Crime Bill.
